"My guess is England will make more changes than India. I expect Bell to come back in instead of Bairstow -- that is hard on him but Bell is back -- and I would expect Finn to replace Broad," the BBC quoted Mukherjee, as saying.

"I think India will revert to playing two spinners and two seamers, maybe with Sharma coming in for Harbhajan. It is winter here and the match starts at nine in the morning, which means a bit of dew around. I think even India like to see seamers," he added.

Finn took 4-50 in 16 overs during the England Performance Programme's victory over the DY Patil Academy last week, and if he is selected he is most likely to replace beleaguered England vice-captain Broad.
